Brass extruded rods: In an electric induction furnace Copper/Zinc are melted and then poured into billets. These heated billets are under high temperature and pressure extruded on a press into solid rods , hollow rods or special profiles. They are further drawn /straightened as needed.

There is tight control on the metallurgy and physical properties.The length is 10-12 feet and physical /chemical properties are maintained to a specific standard.

Brass cast rods: Brass scrap is melted in small coal fired foundries. The molten metal is poured by hand in to moulds which have hexagonal shape and cast in to rods about 4 ft long. They are then drawn on a draw bench to arrive at cast rods which are machined further.

Some basic differences:

1) Chemical properties- cast rods can contain impurities which might .might not be acceptable to EU laws. The percentage ration of Copper/Zinc/Lead is not maintained. Extruded and drawn rods have consistent and controlled chemical /metallurgical properties. All extruded rods have better traceability and spectrograph tests conducted on each production batch.

2) Porosity/brittleness/strength: There is no guarantee with cast rods whereas extruded rods have compliance to a standard

3)Economy: The cast rods are about 4-5% cheaper than extruded ones. However when making parts which generate more scrap this gets compounded a you might need 5-6 Kgs of Brass rods to make 1 Kg of finished products. Here the 4% difference will become 20-25% difference

4)Finish: Parts made from extruded Brass will have better thread finish and better Brass tinge (more Golden as usually higher Copper). This however is not easy for a lay person to figure out.
